Question 10 • English Language Arts 12

Read the sentence. The poster includes bright, pretty colors to catch the viewer’s attention and evoke a sense of joy. Which is the most accurate and precise replacement for the underlined word?

Answer
A
vibrant
B
jarring
C
understated
D
nice

Explanation

“Vibrant” means bright, vivid, and full of energy, so it precisely describes colors meant to catch attention and evoke joy. “Nice” is too general, while “understated” means subtle and “jarring” suggests an unpleasant or startling effect.
